What Is Texas About?

The premise of Texas without spoilers.

Two Virginians head to Texas for a fresh start, but stop when a stagecoach is robbed. Seizing the chance, they double‑cross the bandits and steal the loot. A posse forces them to part, leaving them apart for years. When they reunite, each has chosen opposite sides, one a lawman, the other an outlaw, deepening the rift between former brothers.
